Today's focus: Psycho corporations

By Jeff Caruso

Psycho corporations

Are all corporations essentially psychopathic? That's the
message of a recent documentary, and Mark Gibbs says the points
that the documentary raises explain the behavior of Microsoft
and predict bad behavior from Google.

Grids rule

Are grids all they're cracked up to be? It's starting to look
that way from the early adopters. Network World Editor-in-Chief
John Dix takes a closer look.

Buzz says the venture capital market for networking-related
start-ups is healthier than you might think. Paul McNamara
explains that despite the fact that the '90s dot-com hysteria
money has evaporated, there's plenty of exciting stuff going on.
